Seven surprising things that happen in UWE

Some things in the game just pop up and you say, "Why in the heck did THAT happen?"

  • Sometimes you level up, and click on stamina/bosses, and you have zero health. Leveling up refills your health. Where did it go? It went to some boss, who was pounding on you when you weren't even in it. If you join a boss fight, your health is on the table at all times. Which is cool. You only need it while you're hitting them. And if it's zero the rest of the time, people can't attack you. 
  • Sometimes you look at your achievements (that trophy icon in the upper left of the screen) and if you scroll through them, you find one that you have earned but not collected. 
  • The game gave me the achievement for $200,000 in hourly property income, when I only had 194,000 in property income. Apparently, just starting the next Caribbean Island was enough. 
  • Sometimes you look at your profile and you find that you have a scratcher that you haven't used. 
  • If the turn you take to level up puts you over the XP target for your current level, the extra XP is applied to the next level. Playing this angle makes it possible to level up repeatedly at the low levels. Some players will shuffle different lieutenants into the inner circle to maximize this effect by increasing the max Stam and Energy for the next level.
  • The Personal Armory property adds +1 attack to each of your lieutenants. If that LT is seated, and gets a bonus such a double attack, the armory point is doubled, too. The same goes for the Boxing Gym and LT defense. If you buy all 10 of each, you'll be adding 10 attack and 10 defense to every LT, and if you have all five seats open, an additional 26 attack and 15 defense to your seat bonuses.
  • Sometimes, when you have an alt, and you get to an EvE game late, they don't have the same number of tokens. What made one of them wake up sooner? Getting shot.
